Local Food Businesses in East Little York (2)

The Houston Health Department helps communities by making fresh fruits and vegetables more affordable. They do this via their Get Moving Houston Farmers Markets program. Because, they believe "fruits and vegetables help prevent or delay the start of chronic diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease while helping people maintain a healthy weight and just feel better". They also "accept cash, credit, debit and SNAP/Lonestar EBT". The schedule of the market is also available on their website. This market is also located in Northeast Multi-Service Center at 9720 Spaulding Street. Also, "this center has many different programs you can take advantage of". "Customers using SNAP and D-SNAP" also have "benefits". "Buy items at the markets" and they "will receive the dollar equivalent of their purchases in Healthy Houston Bucks to spend on fruits and vegetables".

Known for an oil & gas motif, philanthropy with child-driven causes, and killin’ it in the haze craze, Spindletap Brewery features a comfortable taproom with four flat-screen televisions behind the bar and five more overlooking the made-on-site picnic tables. They offer a wide selection of craft beers including their well-made “Blonde Ale” which is a solid crossover beer to welcome newcomers to the local-brew scene. For timid beer drinkers, the “Boomtown Blonde” is a light and refreshing starter. Other offerings include “Hopper House Double IPA, Pale Ale, a Single-hop India Pale Ale and the Honey Hole ESB.” They have a spacious production area that includes a projector capable of beaming a 300-inch high-definition image on a blank wall. They also have an indoor and outdoor patio with a pizza food truck set up outside.
